Disparo (Shot) by Daniel Puente Encina contains nine unpublished tracks and an updated cover version of ”Botellas contra el pavimento” as a tribute to his very first anti-fascist band ”Los Pinochet Boys”. It is a courageous and remarkable production, which impacts with minimalistic arrangement, creating an impressive, powerful sound. An astonishing electric guitar, which seems to have been plucked from the muddy swamps of the Mississippi, accompanied by percussion instruments such as congas and djembes and above all, Daniel’s charismatic and rocksoulful voice produce a progressive, new and exciting style: ”Furious Latin Soul”, as he calls his newest creation. From R&B to Caribbean Son, from Reggae to Afro-Peruvian 6/8, Mambo and Bolero. Thrilling music that gets under your skin. Daniel Puente Encina: ”My songs are like a series of short films in which the lyrics are the script the music is the photography. I imagined a Bluesman of the 20s who got lost in Cuba. El álbum rinde homenaje a la música con raíces negras de las tres Américas y evidencia mi profundo amor y genuino respeto por la música africana.”

Crossing road Blues and rum under palm trees in a suffocating humidity. 3.
